IE and ports

So I was talking to this guy today who was saying that he has windows xp with a firewall (forget which one). He said that when he opens up IE, everytime he goes to a different web site it shows it going to a different port. He tried closing down all ports accept a handful, IE would not display a web page after browsing for a short while. He would reboot and same thing - browse a couple sites then unavailable. Does this make any sense, it didnt to me. The thing is he wanted it more secure than that. Any info please, enlighten me.
